A little Orzhov Phyrexian fun. Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos makes for a fun build around (makes sense considering he has his own precon), and while I was kind of down on the Incubate mechanic when I first saw it, it started to click with me the more I saw it in action. Having artifact tokens that can avoid board wipes, transform at instant speed and even attack with a kind of pseudo-haste providing the artifact didn't come into play that turn allows them a lot of versatility, and this deck takes advantage of those properties in some cool ways.

Probably the most important cards in the deck are The Ozolith and Resourceful Defense. Both of these cards will harvest the +1/+1 counters from any transformed Phyrexian tokens and move them onto the next one, making a bigger and bigger threat every time.

Those counters can get further buffed by a handful of proliferate triggers in the deck, whether a bonus on removal cards like Drown in Ichor or Whisper of the Dross, or as a repeatable option through Karn's Bastion or Contagion Engine. We're not trying to win with poison counters, but a few of our Phyrxian friends naturally have toxic, so we certainly don't mind proliferating those counters as an edge case win-con.

But more often than not, we're just trying to build a big board of tokens and creatures, and swing in for damage, all while utilizing the excellent removal options Orzhov has access to.
